Reading Sermons for the Churches

The Bible

Articles relating to different versions, consideration of "infallibility," and attempts to reduce the authority of Scripture.

Calvinism vs. Arminianism

Arminianism or "free-willism" has become increasingly popular in evangelical and Reformed Churches.  These pamphlets set forth the "Calvinism" of Scripture and point out the errors of Arminianism.

Christian Education

Children of godly parents are an "heritage of the Lord" and require instruction which is firmly based upon the teachings of Scripture.

Church and Worship

Instructs concerning the necessity and place of worship; shows the errors of "women in office"; speaks of the mission calling of the church; and Church Discipline

Common Grace and the "Free Offer"

The Protestant Reformed Churches originated when early leaders were put out of the Christian Reformed Church because of their opposition to the "Three Points" adopted by the Synod of Kalamazoo in 1924.  The issue of the "Free Offer" has especially concerned the PRC because of its Arminian emphasis.

Christian Living

Treats of "worldly amusements" (movie, dance); discusses labor union membership; points to Scripture's call to godliness; Christian's duty to judge; Assurance of Salvation.

Creation

Studies concerning the origin of all things.

Creeds

The "Three Forms of Unity": the Heidelberg Catechism, the Belgic Confession of Faith; and the Canons of Dordt are the confessions of most Reformed churches.  The more ancient creeds are also to be found here.  We have here also articles which treat of these confessions.

Doctrine

Theology, Regeneration, Justification, Millennialism, Evangelism, the Covenant, Creation, and Grace are all considered here.

Eschatology

This is a study of the last days leading to the return of our Lord Jesus Christ on the clouds of heaven.

Marriage and Family Living

Divorce and remarriage are the scourges of society today.  Pamphlets in this section present a study of the Scriptural teachings on this serious subject.

Pentecostalism and Other Errors

Pentecostalism has become popular in main-line churches.  What does Scripture have to say of this?  And what about the "Promise Keepers?"
